Equality Objectives 2017-2020
1 Advance the Equality and Diversity Agenda through staff training: regular sessions including CPD days and weeks; induction; equality and diversity events throughout the academic year.
- A target of 100% staff completion for Equality and Diversity training has been set.
- This will be evidenced by staff training records and event reports.
2. Identify any achievement gaps associated with gender and ethnicity and reduce the gap by 5% year on year.
- Evidence of this will be in Equality and Diversity Reports.
3. Recruit and retain governors and staff who reflect the student population with regard to ethnicity.
- Evidence of this will be Self-Assessment reports.
